Municipality of Chatham-Kent | Looking south towards the current southern
terminus of Highway 40 from the Highway 401
overpass in Chatham-Kent. The MTO's jurisdiction of Highway 40 ends
just south of the creek bridge after the
Highway 401 ramps. Before 1998, Highway 40 continued southerly to
Highway 3 in Blenhiem. Photo taken: October 18th, 2005. |

Municipality of Chatham-Kent |
Looking north along Highway 40 towards the northern
Highway 401 ramps. When this overpass
was originally constructed, it was only designed to carry a minor county
road, and not a busy King's Highway. For this reason, this overpass is
quite narrow and the northern Highway 401
ramps have very poor sightlines at Highway 40. Photo taken: October 18th, 2005. |

Municipality of Chatham-Kent | Looking south along Highway 40 towards
Highway 401. Because of the narrow
Highway 401 overpass and poor sightlines at
the ramp terminals, Highway 40 has an advisory speed of 40km/h at the
Highway 401 interchange. Photo taken: October 18th, 2005. |
